Want to know how to become famous on Animal Jam? By being friendly, clued in and enjoying yourself, you'll find a variety of ways to achieve fame.

Steps

Part 1

The basics

1

The first and most obvious: choose a username. One like "snowangle12" is fine... If you think bad spelling (it's 'angel') and unoriginality makes a good username. Yeah, no. Try to be creative and unique with your Animal Jam username. This will make it - and you - memorable. A decent username can be pretty hard to come by, so if you do, only take it if you're certain that you will commit yourself and not become another 'Over 30 days'.

Try not to have numbers in your username unless they serve a purpose other than adding to a taken username. Numbers probably won't be the death of you; you can still become famous. Julian... 2. Twinkle... 0122. Animaljammer... 330.

If you're one of those lucky few who manage to snatch a one-word username (e.g. Aparri, Bepper, Skorm, Bruizer, Choruss, Refraction), capitalizing the first letter is recommended.

What do WisteriaMoon, LilacPetal, WootMoo, GummyUnicorn, BubblegumBee and WooshieWoo all have in common? They all have names in two, capitalized parts. However, WooshieWoo's Animal Jam username is styled as Wooshiewoo, as Jammers can no longer capitalize their username except for the first letter.

You can change your username once by e-mailing AJHQ at support@animaljam.com and requesting a username change.

2

Try hosting parties, fashion shows, etc. You will become popular.

3

Be rare. Whether you like it or not, rares are a big part of Animal Jam and something that does contribute and sometimes even cause fame. One long Rare Spiked Collar should be good for appearances, but keep in mind that, while rares are more important than people like to admit, it's not the smartest idea to show them off.

4

If you want people to gift you stuff when you're famous, you're going to have to return the favour. One word: giveaways. Big giveaways. Show your fans that you really do care about them!

If possible, log into Animal Jam daily, especially on Mondays to get the RIM (Rare Item Monday). While most rares, especially member ones, fizzle out, some will amass rarity over time. A good example of this is the Rare Necklace, which many people recycle due to its undesirable nature. However, it is now worth up to as much as an Headdress. Even if it's tempting to recycle that member or non-member RIM to make room for other, better rares, keep a hold on them. Make a separate, storage account exclusively for those little things that may or may not be the next black long!

Part 2

Customizing your animal

1

Choose your custom animal. Choose your own animal. At the moment, the most popular is an arctic wolf but you can choose whatever pleases you. Note if you are nonmember, you can always use wolves or bunnies.

When you think of Julian2, you think of an horse. When you think of WolfDog, you think of a wolf. Their looks are cool because they match their personality.

2

Have a personality. Don't copy a personality; create your own. Try to match up your outfit to make a kind of signature look.

Part 3

Building a following

1

Build a following. Make one hundred friends. Delete people now and again so more people get the chance to buddy you.

2

Make a YouTube channel and encourage everyone to subscribe to you.

Get at least ten subs before you take it up a notch.

3

Make exciting videos. Examples: Sky High, Nyan cat challenge, Talkshows, Music Videos, Mail times (if you are famous enough to get a lot of gifts, never ask people to gift you for a mail time) Daily jamaaliday gifts ( It depends on the time of year, such as Halloween ) Make sure to leave links on your YouTube channel to your social media pages.

Make any videos you think are interesting and post them to your channel. Never make a video that says: I just got a Rare Spiked Collar. It will make you seem of less interest to your viewers.

4

Make accounts on different social media sites (Twitter, Instagram, Picmonkey). If you do this, more people will recognize you and you'll become more famous.

Some good sites to use: Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, Google+, or Instagram.

Tips

If you create a club or clan be sure to tell everyone in it to tell your friends about the club or clan. If you have a YouTube, mention it before you start to do anything with your club or clan (If anyone in your club or clan become good friends with you, you could both do a collaboration on YouTube!)

You can also throw parties and help out new jammers when they need help. They'll think your awesome and always look up to you.

Be nice. Help new Jammers. Ask 'what's wrong?' if someone is upset and anything else that comes to your mind. Don't say "LOL ur a big noob!" and maybe the person will pass it on to their buddies who will pass it on to everyone, then everyone will hate you.

If you're trading, don't say "I accept all", because you may decline if you don't like what they've traded. Then people won't like you.

Do funny things, just don't make it inappropriate! People like funny stuff so being funny will get you many buddies! *Chat a lot! Chatting is something at least every jammer does on their first day!

Give shoutouts to your buddies in videos that you do. That can make them popular, and you will become more popular if you have popular buddies. They might return the favor in their videos!

Be a guide to new jammers.

Ask an adult before you start your channel because your parents may not want you to have social media.

Warnings

You may get some hate from other Jammers, the best thing to do with them is block them.
